Firstly thank you so much to all of you that have left a comment for Ellie about her card. She is over the moon and has asked several times today "has anyone else looked at my card?" It has really perked her up. She is getting better and has managed to get out of her PJs today and go outside and play!!!
Next - THANK YOU BECKY for the lovely card and images.
Sadly Ellie has her eye on quite a few of these, and what she doesn't want she is 'giving' Beth!! I am gong to really enjoy colouring and creating with these as I don't have any of these stamps ... yet!!Dave, my lovely, wonderful etc hubby finished the technical bits of my craft room (small, compact and bijou!), and after a few coats of varnish it is finished and I have moved in ... it looks like this ...
The work bench ... which also hides a single bed under it.
Lots of storage space
Some of my stash stored away!
He has made a shelving unit to store stamps, ribbons etc.
Anyway finally onto the card!! I got to craft in my lovely room this evening and this is what I have created ....
The CCT challenge this week is autumn and I have combined it with the Dutchdare challenge of only cardstock. I do love this Sugar Nellie image and have coloured her in acqua Promarkers. I used Coreindations cardstock and embossed some of it using my Pumkins folder. I distressed both the background card and the little rectangels to give them that aged feel Autumn has. I added olive green ricrac, ivory lace, Magnolia leaves, copper wire and ochre Prima flowers - pretty much the Autumn colour range. Sadly the wire hasn't shown up as well as it does on the card itself.
Have a grat evening - it has started to rain here, there's a surprise!
